The Joys of Jewish Preserving

Harvard Common Press 2017

Jewish cooks are proud of the history of preserved foods in Jewish life, from the time of living in a desert two millennia ago, to the era in which Jews lived in European ghettoes with no refrigeration. In a significant sense, the Jewish tradition of preserved foods is a symbol of the Jewish will to survive. With terrific color photos by the Seattle photographer Leigh Olson, rich and detailed background info about Jewish food traditions, and, above all, terrific and tasty recipes both sweet and savory, this book is a celebration of some of the best foods Jewish cooks have ever created.
